This text presents an understanding of basic concepts on the subject of thermodynamics and is a definitive resource for undergraduate students in engineering programs, most specifically, students studying engineering technology.
Maurice Bluestein is a professor emeritus of mechanical engineering technology at Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis. He has taught for 19 years at the undergraduate and graduate levels, following a 25-year career in the biomedical engineering industry. He received a PhD in biomedical engineering from Northwestern University and an MS and BS in mechanical engineering from New York University and the City College of New York, respectively. He has authored numerous scientific papers and is the co-developer of the Wind Chill Temperature Chart used by the weather services of the United States and Canada.
